7 Habits of Highly Effective People
influential book
Stephen Covey’s book is recognised as one of the most influential self improvement books ever written.
It has been translated into 34 languages, has sold over 25 million copies worldwide and the 25th anniversary edition was published in November 2013.
the habits
You’ve probably heard of at least one or two of the habits, even without reading the book: be proactive; begin with the end in mind; put first things first; think ‘win/win’; seek first to understand, then be understood; synergise and sharpen the saw.
That’s an indication of how widely adopted Stephen Covey’s ideas have become. In reading this book you’ll find an inspiring way to analyse your life – what you want and how to get there.
There are no short cuts, change takes work, but Covey’s methods are tried and tested.
why we like this book
The book’s title may make it sound like a management book, but it’s really about how to be a better person and get more out of life. At times it’s not the easiest of reads, but we’d say it’s worth persevering as it’s profound and life changing stuff.
